Why it stands out

The 2026 Hyundai Kona stands out because it combines a roomier cabin with a recognisable design and a broad spread of equipment. Hyundai says the second-generation Kona was launched for the 2024 model year with more room inside and greater cargo capacity, and the styling was updated while still remaining very recognisable as a Kona. For buyers who want a small SUV that feels more substantial than before, that extra space is a major part of the appeal.

The 2026 model also benefits from a well-rounded feature set. The Kona lineup includes a base 2.0-litre engine with 147 horsepower and a turbocharged 1.6-litre engine in the N Line, and front-wheel drive is standard on the lower trims with all-wheel drive optional there and standard on the N Line. Standard driver-assist features include forward collision warning with automatic braking, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane keep assist, a lane centring system, and a rear seat reminder. Even the entry model comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, LED lights, keyless entry, heated front seats, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while higher trims add items such as adaptive cruise control, a wide sunroof, digital key technology, sportier styling details, and available navigation.

There are still some trade-offs to keep in mind. The base engine is not the most exciting choice, and the Kona’s strongest selling point is less outright performance than its mix of space, technology, and value. For shoppers who want a compact SUV that feels modern, offers useful standard equipment, and keeps the Kona’s distinctive character intact, the 2026 Hyundai Kona makes a strong case.
